3 things PR pros can learn from toddlers

Be curious and ask questions

Every day I am bombarded with questions from toddlers, who asking anything from “What is this?” to “How does this work?” As simple as these questions sound for a toddler they are their way of learning something new.

In the PR world, curiosity is a skill that every practitioner needs. To be successful you need to be curious and ask questions. PR practitioners are expected to know everything about their client. How are they suppose to become an expert if they don’t ask questions?

Practice makes perfect

Toddlers have to practice everything, from putting on their shoes to learning how to use the potty. They seldom learn a new skill on the first try and need to practice and reminders of how to do something.
